Date and time fields
Date and time pickers enable users to select a time and a date. Select the default value in a way where the user has to do as little changes as possible, e.g. set today's date as the default if it is likely to be the desired value in most use cases. Date tumbler columns can loop (e.g., 01-12). The time picker has wheels for time, and a digital clock showing current selection.
